Here's The Thing

When you put two creative, well-known personalities together
in conversation, it’s hard to stop listening.

In his new radio series, "Here’s
the Thing," award-winning actor Alec Baldwin gives the listener unique entrée
into the lives of some of today’s most exciting performers.

Baldwin
sidesteps the predictable by taking listeners inside the dressing rooms,
apartments, and offices of some of the leading creative personalities of our
time, including David Letterman, Billy Joel, Chris Rock, Kristin Wiig and Erica
Jong.

Employing an engaging mixture of curiosity, intelligence and warmth, Baldwin
explores what motivates his guests, how they feel about what they do, and what
keeps them up at night.
